“Norgesuniversitetet” – apply for funding

Applications must be approved by the university management. If UoB sends more applications, these shall be ranked by the management. Therefore we must put an internal deadline for submitting the final application to October 10th. Applications must be sent as an attachments to e-mail to “Kontor for etter- og videreutdanning” , post@evu.uib.no.  It is however important to notice that it is the academic environment itself which have to send the final electronic application for NUV within  October 20th,  while it is the university management who have to  submit approval and possibly ranking of the applications to NUV by the same deadline.

The full call with general policies and specific professional criteria are the Norway University website https://norgesuniversitetet.no/utlysninger/utlysning-2017
